Product Code : SLE/CH/205

Gauze Wire (Product Code: SLE/CH/205) is a pack of plain wire gauze squares, without ceramic centres, that sit on a tripod between a burner flame and a beaker or flask. The mesh spreads the heat across the base of the vessel and gives it a flat, stable support. It is standard chemistry lab equipment for schools in India and colleges, and is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Typical Use

Lay a square flat on top of a tripod, place the beaker or conical flask in the middle, and position the Bunsen burner underneath. The wire mesh stops the flame touching the glass directly at one small spot, so water baths, solutions and crystallisation mixtures heat more evenly and the glass is less likely to crack. Plain gauze also lets students watch the flame through the mesh, which helps when teaching how to adjust a burner from a yellow to a blue flame.

Allow the gauze to cool before handling, as the wire stays hot well after the burner is turned off, and move it with tongs if it must be lifted during a practical. Replace squares that have sagged, rusted or developed holes, because a distorted mesh can tip a vessel. A pack of 10 equips several benches, which suits a class working in small groups.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many squares are in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 plain gauze wire squares.

What size are the squares?
They are listed as 150 x 150 squares. If you need to confirm fit on your tripods, share the tripod top size through our contact page.

What is the difference between plain and ceramic centre gauze?
Plain gauze is an open wire mesh throughout. Ceramic centre gauze has a heat-spreading ceramic patch in the middle; choose it if you want the flame kept further from direct contact with the glass.

Can I heat a vessel without gauze?
Glassware should not normally sit directly over a naked flame. The gauze provides even heat and a flat support, which reduces the risk of cracking and tipping.

How long does a gauze square last?
It depends on how often and how strongly it is heated. Inspect squares regularly and replace any that are bent, holed or corroded.

What should I send for a bulk or export quotation?
The product code SLE/CH/205, number of packs, delivery address and any tender reference. We supply within India and to international markets.
